List shows recently-shared documents

Apple has pushed out a major update of the iWork for iCloud suite of web apps. While the apps are still officially in beta, all three have been given a new, iOS 7-style makeover for their template pickers and document libraries. During editing, though, users will still see the old iOS 6-style look.

Feature-wise the apps have been given the option of adding password protection to documents; protected files can be shared with others. A new list shows all of the documents other people have shared with you. The suite has also gained improved VoiceOver support, rich text formatting in table cells, and keyboard shortcuts for manipulating objects.

Other changes are app-specific. Pages, for instance, now allows floating tables, and insertion of page numbers/counts and footnotes. Numbers can flow text into nearby cells.
